Migrant workers fill skills gaps British workers are not willing to fill, according to a think tank.
A report, published by the Institute for Public Policy, has claimed that migrants are good entrepreneurs, who excel in setting up new markets by maintaining links with their countries of origin.
Roy Hardy, branch manager at engineering and industrial recruitment firm Liberty Industrial Recruitment, told Recruiter: “The report is accurate. Migrant workers fill skill gaps where they are missing in the UK. Around 90% of our workforce are Polish, Slovak or Czech. They have brought an invaluable skill level to our clients. We even had one client say that without these people, they would not have survived.”
